Perfect Binding

Perfect binding is often used for a variety of printed pieces from perfect bound books and booklets to magazines, catalogs, and higher education viewbooks. Perfect bound books / booklets / magazines / catalogs / viewbooks usually consist of various sections with a cover made from heavier paper, glued together at the spine with a strong flexible glue. The sections are rough-cut in the back to make them absorb the hot glue. The other three sides are then face trimmed. This is what allows the perfect bound printed piece to be opened.

Perfect binding gives your printed piece a more professional feel, and can accommodate a much higher page count or can be used for short-run printing for print-on-demand pieces with fast turnaround. Covers can also be scored adding to the book-like look and feel. Perfect binding can be utilized with commercial offset printing or digital printing, depending on which printing method proves to be more cost effective for your printed piece.
